I am thinking about doing cams while my head is off the car. I am really only planning the 16g for a long time. So thats pretty much just gives the option of the ffwd 1 cams or the 264, 272 hks cams. So is it really worth $350 for how much gain. And how are these cars with cams in them. I know my coupe I had shook when it came to stop light because of the fms cam I had in it. I didn't mind it but something I realzied.

Save the $ for dyno time. With a 16g, in my opinion, you will get far more out of the car by tuning it well. There are a lot of options for that money that could be of better use than cams, especially considering that they are not a limiting factor at this point.

Thanks for link. It seems like if I decide to get cams the 264/272 combo might be the best for me. Even though peak power is a lot of improvement the gains across the power band look really good. And the torque jumps alot.
